http://www.hmbfishing.comThe biggest salmon of the season was landed today: a 38 pounder!!! Scott Steele from Las Vegas called me on Wednesday asking about going fishing today. I gave him the rundown and he said he'd think about it. Well, he ended up leaving me a message at 11:30 p.m. (no, I don't answer the phones at night!) that he and his three buddies were leaving the lights of Las Vegas and heading our direction and had decided to go fishing. I think they're pretty darn glad they did. Scott caught the fish of a lifetime lunker and I believe his buddies took home a fish or two, too. Honorable mention today goes to Bob Juner who landed what normally would wow the crowd with a 23 pounder. We ended the day with a respectable score of 12 salmon for 20 anglers to 38 pounds, not nearly the type of score we'd like to have for this time of year, but compared to what we had last month, we'll take it. Oh, yeah, and by the way, weather was overcast with virtually no wind and no swell to worry about. We're in good shape for our Pigeon Point rockfishing trip tomorrow, and we still have plenty of room if you'd like to join us. Just come on down in the morning.

We picked away from start to finish with a fish here and a fish there, with an overall pretty decent grade of fish, quite a few in the 8 to 15 pound range. At one point in the day it seemed like we might have finally found the hot spot, but five fish on at once turned ended up being two keepers and three silvers. Gene, Gene The Fishing Machine landed the 29 pound jackpot winner on a red Krocodile......

The moons didn't align right for us to run a rockfishing trip to Pigeon Point today, but we have high hopes for our salmon trip tomorrow on Thursday. Looks like we just might get the break in the weather we've needed to have a decent shot at putting some fish in the box..........
